- WHAT'S COVERED in ZBrush Creature Workshop?

- Here's what you need to know about ZBrush Creature Workshop
- To make the most of the workshop, you need some basic knowledge of ZBrush and Photoshop (or alternative image editor for compositing), a working copy of ZBrush and a pen tablet is strongly recommended.
- Left-Paced The workshop is structured in a 5-days intensive program with sessions of 3 hours per day. You can stick to the program and complete your concept in 5 days or go at your own pace ;)
- Full Access Once you join, you'll have lifetime access to the lessons so you can re-visit any step of the workshop. Any resource (like brushes, materials, etc.) that you need to follow along, will also be provided.
- Full Workflow This course takes you, step-by-step, through all the stages of the process focusing on various techniques. Each lesson follows a process and has a specific objective so you can keep track of your progress
- What does 'self-paced' means?
- 'Self-paced' means that you can go through the lessons in your own time. You can choose to follow the 5-day program of the workshop which requires you to dedicate at least 3 hours a day plus homework, or set your own rhythm and go through the lessons at a time that is convenient for you.
- Are lesson in English?
- Yes, all recorded lessons are in English.
- Why is the ZBrush Creature Workshop workshop a 5-day program?
- The idea of the 5-day program is to provide a clear, concise and systematic approach to the learning experience. Each lesson of the course has been designed to fit one day of work with clear milestones and a series of steps that can be replicated for other projects. It is recommended that you follow the program and give yourself some deadlines to create a routine.
The 5 main stages of the process (5 days) are also segmented into 2 blocks so you can choose to do '1 block' a day to spread the course into 10 days of work.
Ultimately, it is up to you as you can pause and re-watch the videos as many times as you want.
- What version of ZBrush do I need?
- The workshop was recorded using the latest version of ZBrush which at the time of the recording was 2021.6.6 It is important that you use the same version of ZBrush (or newer) in order to use some of the resources that come with the course. The good news is that most of the core concepts and features described in the course have been part of ZBrush for a while.
- Can I do the course if I don't have Photoshop?
- Absolutely, Photoshop is just my preferred option and how I finish most of my concepts. However, if you feel more comfortable with other image editing software you can totally use something else (affinity photo for instance). The principles and the workflow should translate nicely to other applications similar to Photoshop.
- How long do I have access to the ZBrush Creature Workshop videos?
- You have lifetime access to the lessons, bonuses and resources of this course! When you buy this course, you'll create an account with the 3DConceptArtist.com (if you don't already have one) and you will always have access to the Creature workshop from your course library under your student account!
